Most people start the year convinced this time will be different. And then somewhere around mid-January, motivation fades, routines slip, and goals quietly fall away, a moment often referred to as Quitter’s Day. In this episode of the 52 Weeks Podcast, goal-setting and courage coach Telana Simpson explains why goals don’t fail because of laziness or lack of discipline, but because they’re unclear, borrowed, or disconnected from a deeper intention. She shares how reflection, clarity, and turning lessons into simple personal guidelines can help goals last well beyond January and become meaningful, sustainable change.Here is a free workbook to guide you through this powerful exercise:https://www.innercoaching.co.za/review/

If you’ve ever found yourself scrolling a little too long on your phone… or wondering whether social media is helping or hindering you this episode is one you’ll want to tune into fully.
Today I’m talking with Mari Wuellner entrepreneur, life coach, founder of The Crew coaching collective, podcaster, and self-proclaimed curious student of life. She’s here to share her personal journey of intentionally stepping away from social media for three months, what that experience revealed about her self-worth, presence, creativity, business, and how it ultimately led her to pivot her model and show up differently online.

You can set goals, make plans, and stay consistent but dating doesn’t work the same way as the rest of your life. In this episode, relationship coach Rachel Rose explains why dating can feel especially frustrating and discouraging, particularly around the holidays, when comparison and pressure are everywhere. Rachel breaks down why relationship goals are different from career or personal goals, how old wounds and expectations get amplified this time of year, and what actually helps singles regain clarity and confidence. This conversation matters because it reframes dating struggles as a strategy and timing issue, not a personal failure, and reminds listeners that protecting your peace, limiting access, and being intentional are powerful steps forward even when progress doesn’t look linear.Connect With Rachel Rose

Clutter is not just about stuff on the floor, it is often a signal that something deeper feels overloaded. In this episode, decluttering coach Dorota Kuldo breaks down why traditional “push harder” organizing advice can backfire, and what it looks like to declutter in a softer, more sustainable way that supports your nervous system instead of fighting it. She shares her own story of living between extremes, hitting a rock-bottom moment at home, and rebuilding a life where peace and calm became the default. Listeners will walk away with practical, doable starting points (including the one-minute method), plus powerful mindset shifts around shame, self-trust, and the hidden rules that keep people stuck. This matters because clutter can quietly drain energy, time, money, and relationships, and this conversation offers a realistic path to change without perfectionism.

What if the real win isn’t hitting every goal… but trusting God with the outcome? In this episode, Peyton Naomi Leonard shared something that stopped me in my tracks: when you truly delight yourself in God, your desires and His desires start to align. That perspective reframes everything especially goal-setting, ambition, and those moments when life doesn’t go according to plan. Peyton is a relationship coach, author, and musician who brings a grounded, faith-filled approach to growth, creativity, and healing. Together, we talk about setting, navigating seasons of life, and learning how to pursue big dreams while staying rooted in peace. This conversation is a reminder that progress doesn’t have to come from pressure it can come from trust.Connect With Peyton:

What if better digestion doesn’t start with a supplement or a cleanse, but with how you sit down to eat? In this episode of the 52 Weeks Podcast, holistic nutritionist Rachel Einbinder talks about meal hygiene and why the environment, pace, and state of your nervous system matter just as much as the food on your plate. Rachel explains the mind-gut connection, how stress can shut down digestion, and why simple habits like slowing down, chewing thoroughly, and creating a calm mealtime can dramatically improve how your body absorbs nutrients. This episode matters if you want practical, sustainable ways to support your gut, energy, and overall health without extremes or restriction
